[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 473611, member: 6969"] The tv spectrum used for analogue tv managed to deliver just 5 channels. That is all there was room for. Each analoge tv channel has been replaced with a "digital multiplexer" which carries 20 or more channels. The result is we now have over 100 freeview channels (not all proper tv channels mind) AND they have been squeezed into less spectrum space than the analogue channels used to occupy, and some of the vacated space is now used for 4G mobile phones. There is however a lot of resistance to the DAB system used in the UK. Many say it is a poor implementation, with very low bitrate and poor audio quality. for home listening through the hifi I use a satellite receiver, I have a spare one dedicated just to receiving radio channels. There are more radio stations to choose from on satellite than DAB and at a higher bit rate. [/QUOTE]
